Hello, I'm currently integrating the Fishbase API in a very simple OSS project (github.com/trackMyFish), which will be used to keep a track of what fish a person has. Do you have any requirements/wishes for usage in this project? Accreditation somewhere on the site, for example?

https://www.fishbase.se/summary/Gymnelus-hemifasciatus.html The above is an example of searching the fishbase database using the "Genus+Species" field. It leads to a summary page for that genus+species. On that page under the heading "distribution" is the zone (example: "Arctic"), under the "heading distribution range" is the lat and long range (example: "83°N - 43°N, 55°E - 78°W"). The values for "distribution" and "distribution range" for each genus+species are what I would like to access. Can you show how to do this? Thanks

Is it possible to get the response in a specific language? I tries Content-language in the header and also the language param, both didn't work.

I want to pass "zebra danio" for example to an endpoint to get the fish details. Is that possible?

Hi, i need environment detail information/coloration detail information, i hit the api using SpecCode

I'm trying to get information regarding a fish's natural envirornment parameters such as, temperature range, ph range, dGH or hardness, substrate etc. I have tried species by id, ecology filtered by SpecCode, and envirornment filtered by SpecCode. The ecology endpoint at least gives me some useful information about the species' diet, shoaling or schooling, etc but none of the parameters listed above. Any help would be great, thanks!

This is just what I needed and until today it worked brilliantly. So a big THANKS for doing this! The github description states 'The testing server may be available only intermittently and all endpoints are subject to change.' As I am working on a long-lived project I need to know the stability and longevity of fishbaseapi. I would think the scientific community would be keen to have this as a reliable resource.

I am trying to use the 'species' method and filter them by country. There does not appear to be a way to filter the results, please advise. Thanks

I see that some of the available calls return jpg images in the JSON format. Is there any way to use this to display the same picture?
